 | <p>Software Freedom Conservancy is a nonprofit organization | ||||||
| <p>Software Freedom Conservancy, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit | centered around ethical technology. Our mission is to ensure the right to | ||||||
| organization incorporated in New York.  Software Freedom Conservancy helps | repair, improve and reinstall software. We promote and defend these rights | ||||||
| promote, improve, develop, and defend Free, Libre, and Open Source Software | through fostering free and open source software (FOSS) projects, driving | ||||||
| (FLOSS) projects.  Conservancy provides a non-profit home and infrastructure | initiatives that actively make technology more inclusive, and advancing policy | ||||||
| for FLOSS projects.  This allows FLOSS developers to focus on what they do | strategies that defend FOSS (such as copyleft).</p> | ||||||
| best — writing and improving FLOSS for the general public — while |  | ||||||
| Conservancy takes care of the projects' needs that do not relate directly to |  | ||||||
| software development and documentation.</p> |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| <p>FLOSS projects whose <a href="/members/apply">applications are |  | ||||||
|     accepted</a> become part of the Software Freedom Conservancy |  | ||||||
|     (akin to a separate department of a large agency).  Once joined, the |  | ||||||
|     <a href="/members">“member project”</a> receives most of |  | ||||||
|     the benefits of existing as a non-profit corporate entity without |  | ||||||
|     engaging in the arduous work of forming a separate, new organization. |  | ||||||
|     Conservancy aggregates the work of running a FLOSS non-profit |  | ||||||
|     for <a href="/members/current/">its many members</a>.</p> |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| <p>Conservancy provides <a href="/members/services/">many important services</a> for its |  | ||||||
|   member projects.  Member projects can take directed donations, which |  | ||||||
|   allows donors to earmark their donations for the benefit of a specific |  | ||||||
|   FLOSS project.  Conservancy provides fiscal oversight to ensure that |  | ||||||
|   these funds are spent in a manner that advances the project and fits |  | ||||||
|   with Conservancy's 501(c)(3) mission to promote, advance, and defend software freedom.</p> |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| <p>If the member project's leaders want, Conservancy can also hold other |  | ||||||
|   assets and titles on behalf of the projects, such as copyrights, |  | ||||||
|   trademarks, domain names, online hosting accounts, and title and ownership |  | ||||||
|   of physical hardware.  Also at discretion of the project's leaders, |  | ||||||
|   Conservancy can assist in defending the rights represented in these |  | ||||||
|   assets.  For example, Conservancy is available to assist member projects |  | ||||||
|   in enforcing the terms of the projects' FLOSS license.</p> |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| <p>Finally, developers of Conservancy's member projects, when operating in |  | ||||||
|   their capacity as project leaders, could receive some protection from personal |  | ||||||
|   liability for their work on the project.</p> |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| <p>For further reading on the benefits of Conservancy, a full and detailed <a href="/members/services/">list of Conservancy's |  | ||||||
|   services for its member projects</a> and a <a href="/members/current/">a |  | ||||||
|   list of Conservancy's current member projects</a> are available.</p> |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| <p>Conservancy and its <a href="/about/board">directors</a> |  | ||||||
|   and <a href="/about/staff">staff</a> believe strongly in the principles of |  | ||||||
|   software freedom, and believe that all users should have the right to |  | ||||||
|   study, improve and share their software.  Conservancy helps protect, |  | ||||||
|   enable, coordinate, facilitate and defend the public's right to copy, |  | ||||||
|   share, modify and redistribute FLOSS both non-commercially and |  | ||||||
|   commercially.  Finally, like most organizations devoted to FLOSS, |  | ||||||
|   Conservancy opposes the notion of patents that cover software, and urges |  | ||||||
|   contributors to its member projects not to apply for patents.</p> |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
